Resurfaced footage of Kamala Harris exemplifies her contempt for the Second Amendment and the inalienable right to self-defense.

“Just because you legally possess a gun in the sanctity of your locked home doesn’t mean that we’re not going to walk into that home and check to see if you’re being responsible,” then-San Francisco District Attorney Kamala Harris said.

Fox News reports:

The remarks came during a press conference introducing legislation that Harris helped draft, which sought to impose penalties for gun owners who fail to store their firearms properly at home.

The bill, which at the time had just been introduced to the city’s board of supervisors, was ultimately signed into law a few months later by then-San Francisco Mayor Gavin Newsom. It was bundled with other gun control provisions, including a new requirement for legal gun distributors to submit an inventory to the chief of police every six months, and a ban on possessing guns – even legally – in public housing.

“San Francisco now has the strictest anti-gun laws in the county,” Newsom said when he signed the new laws.

During the May 2007 press conference discussing the safe-storage bill, Harris said the new measure was about legislating “our values” in an attempt to “encourage certain kinds of behavior.”

“When we create laws, it’s not only about creating an opportunity, if you will, to prosecute someone for committing a crime, but more importantly, when we legislate our values, it’s about trying to encourage certain types of behavior,” she said at the time.

Harris has faced criticism for statements she has made about her “values” heading into November. She told CNN last month they “have not changed,” while simultaneously switching on long-held policies on almost every front. Since becoming the Democratic nominee for president, Harris has tried to paint a more moderate picture of herself in an attempt to distance herself from President Biden and appeal to a wider swath of voters.

Harris said during the presidential debate that her administration would not take anyone’s guns because her and Tim Walz are both gun owners.

“This business about taking everyone’s guns away; Tim Walz and I are both gun owners. We’re not taking anybody’s guns away so stop with the continuous lying about this stuff,” Harris said.

Despite saying they’re both gun owners, Harris and Walz have supported widespread violations of the right to bear arms.

“Together, we passed the first bipartisan law addressing gun violence prevention in nearly 30 years, but we have more work to do. We must pass an assault weapons ban, universal background checks, and red flag laws,” Harris said.

“Kamala Harris just said Trump is lying about her support of a mandatory gun buyback because she ‘is a gun owner.’ The reality is, Kamala will get to keep the guns protecting her while she forces you to turn yours in. But don’t listen to me, listen to Kamala herself,” Ashley St. Clair wrote.

“FACT-CHECK: Here’s gun owner (supposedly) Kamala Harris, in 2019 promising mandatory gun confiscation, which libs love to call a ‘buy back.’ But when it’s mandatory, they don’t exactly give you a choice,” Charlie Kirk commented.

In old footage, Harris said on the campaign trail that she would take executive action if Congress failed to implement gun control measures within her first 100 days.
